This copy is an obvious bootleg which is probably why Amazon no longer sells it. I have a friend at WB and asked him what the situation is on releasing this. WB is basically better than all other studios combined in releasing its material so the fact that this appears not to be released leads me to believe that there is either a rights or material issue. Again keep in mind not every film ever made is currently out on DVD so sometimes the professor will have to wait.
I will let you know what I find out.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
